If you’re here reading this article (especially before noon), we suspect there’s a good chance that you’re powered by the two things that keep us going here at Stately Beat Manor: comics and coffee. Now, thanks to Heavy Metal Coffee, you can get both your fixes from the very same source!
The beans are coming from Dark Matter Coffee, based out of Chicago, Illinois, and you can decide whether you’d prefer to purchase the coffee separately, or buy it as part of a subscription model that includes merch, magazines, comics, and coffee in a single monthly shipment (really – what else do you need). You can learn more details and subscribe to the service on Heavy Metal’s website.
Dark Matter Coffee is no stranger to coffees that scratches your nerd itch while sating your caffeine addiction! All of their coffees feature arresting artwork on the packaging, and they frequently boast names like “Unicorn Blood” and “Machete.” Plus, earlier this year, they even released coffee that tied-in with The Living Dead, the ultimate zombie novel by George A. Romero and Daniel Kraus.
Dark Matter Coffee’s Minister of Propaganda Kyle Hodges promises that subscribers can expected high-concept art and coffee.
The coffee’s packaging will be decorated with a collage of artwork that aims to both pays respect to Heavy Metal’s legacy while incorporating some of the publisher’s new and upcoming offerings, including Dylan Sprouse’s Sun Eater.
The coffee is just the latest development for the publisher, which has enjoyed a very busy year. In May 2020, Heavy Metal announced the launch of Heavy Metal’s website, an imprint that was designed with the unique circumstances of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic in mind.
More recently, the publisher announced that they would be expanding the podcasts they offered, part of an arrangement with DIGA Sounds.
And just last week, Heavy Metal announced the impending launch of Magma Comix, a new creator-owned imprint.
